think president obama has been reluctant to join in that junk without knowing that in fact speaker boehner republican leader in the senate mitch mcconnell would be able to join hands with him as he takes the lead. let me say i think that entitlement spending that republicans house what they ais a is three months they will allow the debt ceiling to be hiked and try to attach some spending cuts or at least say we need to be engaged in negotiations for further increase in debt hike. i think that was a recession for republicans in reality they were losing this argue uchlt. it reengineers to the point that 60 percent of americans think you have to have spending cuts right now. >> you listen to the president's senior advisor today he was talking again about a balanced approach saying whatever deal on the debt ceiling has to have tax loopholes closed. speaker boehner brought the 800 billion in loop whole closures in the beginning of the fiscal cliff negotiation that should be a part of this deal. despite the fact that the president wanted rate increase on the fiscal deal and that's all they want.

john boehner and republicans decided they want to have an argument over the debt ceiling, because of the new year we will be better positioned. they quickly have realized that is not going to be the lever they thought it would be. host: you have covered three presidents, clinton, bush, and now president obama. people say the political divide between these branches is stronger now than it has been in years. you agree or disagree? guest: i absolutely agree. host: why/ guest: i think it is a building that has been taking place frankly since the past couple administrations. it was the war in iraq. for the republicans, the government spending. it is also the election system and the way we run our primaries. we have a more ideological- purified house of representatives than we have had in a very long time. that is because some people would argue redistricting, as well, which in the past election both parties to it. in the states where democrats are not in control they redraw the districts to make the majority democrats. the republican side as well. this is the first time republicans have c

we see a moment between bill clinton and speaker boehner. so many great political combinations. people who haven't seen each other in a while. people who probably spend more time together than they do. on days like today it's easy to picture the american people wishing that this kind of spirit would live on longer than one day, one lunch. but as is too often the case in our modern politics, they're at each other either by midnight tonight or by tomorrow, given how split we are. we have had the unusual distinction, this is the first time for all of us on the panel to watch the luncheon with james taylor. you were defending your use of a drum machine rather than good drummers. >> well, it doesn't take the place of a perfectly good drummer. it was a limited application. >> i'm giving you hard time. >> i know. >> what do you think of what you have seen here today as a veteran watcher of politics? >> brian, i agree with you entirely. it seems like -- well, first of all, i think the inauguration is our day of celebration, and really our election and our choosing our leaders, they're c
